Why Michael Jordan's The Last Dance is exactly what sports fans need right now
, and in recent weeks without sports, people on social media essentially demanded the immediate release of your project. Were you caught off guard at all about the level of anticipation?I wasn't shocked, because Michael is such an indelible icon in American pop culture — not just sports.
It's a great feeling. We really don't get a chance to have a sense that we're doing anything for society at large when we do these movies. It's entertainment and an escape and diversion from people's everyday stresses, and now people's everyday stresses have been exponentially increased, given the situation that the entire world is going through together.
It came to me in the summer of 2016, when I was approached by Mike Tollin, who is an executive producer on the project, and he asked me if I'd be interested in directing a long-form series about Michael Jordan and the Bulls dynasty, utilizing hundreds of hours of footage that had never been seen before. In '98, I was a senior in college, so I watched all of those games, I vividly remember following that team throughout the '80s and '90s when I was a kid.
